Our 2015 Poetry Prize is underway! To celebrate, we’re going to play a little game of Exquisite Corpse on Twitter. Exquisite Corpse is a game of collaborative storytelling in which each player contributes one line of a poem at a time. On Twitter, the challenge will be keeping each line within 140 characters.

Here’s how it’ll work: We’ll post the first line of a poem, written by our very our Prize judge Eduardo Corral, on Twitter, with the hashtag #IRPoetryPrize. Then you, our lovely Twitter friends, will reply to that tweet with the next line of the poem, and the next contributor will respond with the next line, and so on. Remember to use the hashtag #IRPoetryPrize so that we know you’re participating!

We’ll retweet your responses, and the best lines will be posted right here on the Indiana Review blog!

So let’s make something. Check out Eduardo’s first line here!
